John McCain taps a racist to be campaign manager

Well, this should really come as no surprise!! A Republican basically endorsing racism. John McCain has tapped Terry Nelson to serve as his potential campaign manager. Nelson, you'll recall was the man BEHIND A RACIST AD ATTACKING HAROLD FORD in Tennessee:

Terry Nelson would serve as McCain's campaign manager when (not if) the Arizona Senator decides to run for President. The Huffington Post even reported that Nelson was FIRED AS A WAL-MART CONSULTANT AS A RESULT OF THE AD.

Yawn. I'd like to say I'm surprised, but I can't.

UPDATE: Found it on Chris Cillizza's "The Fix" on the WaPo's website too.
